    Minor Repair or that should buff out

    I thought it was interesting that they hand painted parts before installing them to "lessen the PR impact." Philly has an Airbus parked near 9L that I am pretty sure is the one that went off the end of the runway last year. It still bears the USAirways color scheme, but both the name and...

    Been waiting 12 years to post this!

    Which O-200 Engine Mount Bushings

    Thanks, Dan. That's the one that had me confused. The Spruce listing says it fits C65-90 through O-200B so I presumed that meant my engine as well. Will stick with the Lord mounts. Jim

    Which O-200 Engine Mount Bushings

    My current mounts are >12 years old and have been outside most of this time. The rubber is getting dry and scrapes away easily when you drag your nail over it. I am chasing a very subtle but persistent engine vibration and my mechanic thinks that replacing the mounts is the next logical step...

    Which O-200 Engine Mount Bushings

    I need to replace the engine mount bushings on the O-200 in my C150. Aircraft Spruce appears to carry two replacements: a generic Continental 22387 for $2.47/each and the more expensive Lord J-3601-1 bushing for $16.95/each. Are that Lords that much better? Thanks. Jim

    Foreflight 6.3 with W&B and flight path recording...

    After further consideration, I've realized that I am probably guilty of getting spoiled by Foreflight. I have been a long time user and have stayed with FF over the years in large part because of their focus on customer service and ongoing development. Indeed, Tyson's responses in this thread...

    Guess I'll need to upgrade to see what I've been missing.

    Foreflight 6.3 with W&B and flight path recording...

    Your sarcasm is misdirected. Not asking for free by any means. I have a fully paid subscription and would have found this to be a valuable addition. Instead, FF chose to offer this only to their premium customers. Tyson responded kindly. I have no need for georeferencing and have an excellent...

    Foreflight 6.3 with W&B and flight path recording...

    Call it what you will. A W&B functionality is a basic necessity for all pilots, but especially for us low end guys flying small airplanes on a budget. For $4.99 I have and use Jesse's excellent app. The beauty of the Foreflight version is simply that it's integrated. Are you really expecting...

    Foreflight 6.3 with W&B and flight path recording...

    Really. My excitement about the most recent version lasted about 30 seconds. I understand most of the other "pro" features but limiting W&B to a pro subscription. Come on. If anything, us little guys flying spam cans on the edge of the W&B envelope need a good weight and balance app more...

    Oshkosh who's where

    Yep. Just the two of us for the week. Plan to meet up with friends who are staying at the seaplane base with their Searey and hope to catch up with some POA'ers over the coming days. No specific agenda.... by design. Jim

    We are set up in Camp Scholler, along the corn field just south of the emergency ultralight runway.

    Wanted: Lightspeed trade ins

    I didn't think they have to be working but will certainly double check with Lightspeed. A friend with a broken pair of 20XLs contacted LS for repair and was told they they no longer support them but that he could trade them towards the Sierras or Zulus.

    Wanted: Lightspeed trade ins

    I am thinking about upgrading to Lightspeed Sierras but want to give my current 20XLs to my son to use. Anybody happen to have a broken headset that meets the criteria for the Lightspeed trade in rebate? Thanks. Jim

    Remove seats on Cessna 150M

    I couldn't agree more. Great group of people and a wealth of knowledge. I log in daily over there. Jim
